The Dr. Oz Show is an American syndicated television talk show, hosted by Mehmet Oz, a cardiothoracic surgeon and teaching professor at Columbia University who became famous for his appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show. The show has been criticized by the medical community; a study has found that 54% of health recommendations were not medically supported. The sixth season premiered on September 8, 2014.
The show, which debuted on September 14, 2009, is co-produced by Oprah Winfrey's Harpo Productions and distributed by Sony Pictures Television, is the second Oprah spin-off series featuring a regular guest (Dr. Phil being the first), and marks the first time that Winfrey's company has partnered with another studio outside of the current CBS Television Distribution, which co-produces her series as well as her other series (assumed to be because The Dr. Oz Show is in direct competition with the Dr. Phil spinoff The Doctors, which CBS distributes). For the first four seasons, shows were taped in Studio 6A at NBC Studios in New York, but vacated Rockefeller Center after NBC reclaimed the space for its Late Night franchise. Beginning with season five, Dr. Oz originates from ABC Television Center East on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
In the first season, the show was nominated for an Emmy in best informative talk show and Mehmet Oz received the Emmy for best talk show host. The show was renewed for a third season and launched on September 12, 2011, with a new studio set.
The show's fourth season premiered on September 10, 2012. In several markets, it moved to the timeslot that had been occupied by Oprah, which had left the air at the end of the 2011 season.
